“We have been beaten, been put in prison, faced angry mobs, worked to exhaustion, endured sleepless nights, and gone without food.” 2 Corinthians 6:5 NLT
The only sacrifice a lot of us Christians have ever had to make for Jesus and the gospel is waking up, getting dressed, and going to church. Even that is difficult for some people! Oh my God.
You know, some people’s idea of Christianity is waking up on Sundays, putting on their best or latest clothes and shoes, spraying perfumes, sitting in a good location in church, have a good time for about an hour, take pictures with their Sunday wears, say hello to a few friends, attend couple of meetings and then go home to eat their Sunday rice.
What effort are you making as an individual to ensure that someone else, or people receive the gospel? Now, with social media we can sit in the comfort of our homes and offices and preach the gospel to thousands of people at the same time, at little or no cost; yet a lot of us are not taking advantage of it. On the Last Day, when we stand before Jesus, what excuses are we going to give to Him?
